RegularOP shills to derail the thread.
Coolpad, which was newly bought by LeEco, will be deviating from the EUI being used by LeEco. They are in the process of testing their own new UI which they call JUI or Journey UI. Currently new Coolpad phones use EUI and older Coolpad phones use CoolUI.

Did you have better results?

Add a heatsink maybe? They're really cheap on Ali. The rpi 2 I own also runs hot at idle but I added a heatsink and it works okay.

Is it known that Gearbest or their affiliates sell malware infected mobile phones? Just bought Zenfone 2 from them and after little googling appears that ZF2 is potentially infected from seller. Anyone here come across malware infected phones themeselves?
So I had the Ulefone Metal for several months now, and apart from the fingerprint scanner it works really well. I haven't tried any graphically intensive apps or games yet, but I heard it has a pretty good graphics chip as well. And the phone is just over 100 bucks. Good deal.
>got chinked
I ordered some LED lights (pretty happy with them) but they didn't come with the remote.
Been talking to the seller and he wants to do a refund through PayPal.
Is it safe giving my PayPal to the chinks? I'm thinking it should be, what's /csg/'s opinion?
>>60094702
The biggest question is...
Are the redmis infected by seller? If so, could be the biggest data heist of all time, using meme-seeders to get the exponential growth of the product going.
>>60094719
Don't give your paypal sign-in information to anyone. If he says he can't give you money the regular way through paypal, he's lying.
>>60094702
I bought a Timmy E82 4 years ago and it had a malware that can't be removed even with root.
>>60094702
Gearbest is pretty good for not messing with products, that and shipping all your shit in one package is the only advantage of them really.
>>60094719
PayPal refunds will probably leave you paying a fee. Just insist on refunding through ali, they try to avoid it because it makes them look bad.
>>60094701
But I don't need a CPU, I just need a mini PC for a stand-alone mining cluster.
>>60094719
>not paying with paypal in the first place
you don't have to give him your password m8.. they already know your name and address after shipping the items to you anyway.
>>60094719
Get a refund through ali. Insist on it. If your first request is denied, threaten escalation.
Be polite though.
>>60094702
>Just bought a Zenfone 2
That was your first mistake
>>60094702
>>60094745
how did you check if your phone has a malware?
>>60094886
Just format the shit out of it anyway.
Received 4 packages yesterday and one more waiting for me at the post office. It's an official day of celebration today here, so I doubt I can collect it though.
Will do some photos and first impressions soon.

nice
>>60095168
I use a trip because in '08 on /mu/ everyone had one, it was a full blown massive tripfagging nightmare orgy. After that it always autofilled it for me so why remove it, but usually lurk for some years on other boards before tripping there.
Does it bother you? To be honest I can see why, because this is an anonymous site in theory, but I've always seen it as something pertaining mainly to the orange boards, not the blue ones.
Anyone here have experience buying directly from TaoBao?
I made an account using Chrome and translate extension. Successfully placed an order and payed using alipay. Didn't notice until later that it will be shipped UPS global. I'm afraid UPS is going to try and rape me with brokerage fees for something I only paid 10USD for.
Alibaba seller accepts paypal but the site itself doesn't. Do I have to send it off-site, manually?
Do I still get buyer protection?
>>60095345
Kek what the fuck are you doing
Does information actually get processed by your brain?
No you fucking idiot, sending people money off site is a stupid fucking idea. How do you even have money
>>60095345
Ask them for pay pal invoice, they will send you an offer you have to accept, so you will have the protection as long as everything is described properly, I used alibaba like that.
But its probably better to just use ali.

Just issued a cancellation of my order and straight refund to my Paypal account.
>>60095098
I was mesmerized by it's Atom Z3580 and 4gb RAM and my friend bought one from localy second hand for 60 € and propably the last owner ran a Asus stock ROM to it.
Just going to wait Nokias 6 or some other good phone to buy locally and not to mess with chinasellers.
not to bring any fights to this thread, but I'm seriously tempted to pull the trigger on the Zuk Z2, seeing it's got almost double the performance of the Redmi Note 4 on that antutu crap according to:
https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-zuk-z2-pro4gb-64gb
But with the rumors of support being dropped with the death of the Zuk line, I'd like to know what would that mean for the owners of the phone?
I'm new to smartphones at all and I have no idea how much do people rely on the brand to develop new software or update stuff.
Couldn't we just use the custom firmware (like that LineageOS) or something and update that?
>>60095461
Yup, we can and we will. But some of the faggots here think that won't be enough. It's up to you really.
>>60093645
would be nice if the randomizer had an option to not include stuff that was already rolled
>>60094886
I did googling around with my knowledge of some chinaphones being infected and came across the same model i ordered. Could have propably done it before buying. Although many sources said that phones were bought from shady ebay sellers and some places like gearbest and aliexpress, i just decided to cancel my order.
Although Asus has some form of clean and newer ROM in theri website to download and install. Friend says it has to be loaded throught SD card and is not OTA compatible ROM update.
>>60095345
No, you just don't use paypal.
>>60095494
>>60094745
>malware that can't be removed by formatting
>a phone model being "infected"
That's not how this works. I would've told you to wipe your phone and put LineageOS on it, but your replies are too stupid and you couldn't appreciate my advice.
>>60095612
Well yeah i should have wiped it but what done is done and i get refund to Paypal.
>>60095555
and why exactly
>>60088149
How are you finding the mouse anon? Was thinking of getting one myself
>>60095281
Well fuck me. Just got a text that the item reached the re-shipment warehouse. It's going to cost 15USD to ship a 10USD item the size and weight of a pack of gum.

Where's the cheapest place to buy a tada68 including postage?
I ordered a bunch of NATO straps from a seller. They were cheap, pretty good quality, and arrived quickly. One of them was defective, although I really don't care much. I asked for a replacement anyway, just to save myself $3 or whatever the fuck, and the guy suggested refunding me or something in his Engrish. Today, though, both the item listing and the shop seem to be 404'd. There are 7 items in my order in total and I've only reviewed one of them, and not the defective one.
What will happen if I open a dispute for the defective item? Can/should I chink out and open disputes for all of them?
pic unrelated
>>60095779
you can still dispute even if the store has closed, it only increases your chance of winning
>>60095796
will I have to provide pictures to aliexpress? only one is legitimately defective
>>60095809
yes of course
>>60095813
ok thanks
Recs on sunglasses brands?
>>60095809

If the store is closed its easier to just say never received. I did that for a shitty casio clone
>>60093645
Are there any stores on AliExpress or elsewhere that sell keyboards without keycaps?
>>60095845
I have a pair of HDCRAFTER. I like them, but I just want to put this out here in case anyone has a grave warning to me.
In your opinion, what is:
1 - 150~200$ chinkphone with the best camera
2 - 150~200$ chinkphone with the best build quality
3 - most beautiful 150~200$ chinkphone
4 - 150~200$ chinkphone with the best native UI
>>60095845
Just put $15-$30 down for one good rep from Aooko instead of spending $5-$10 on multiple mediocre sunglasses. Chink brands like Veithdia can sometimes have the worst sizing that makes you look like a doof or a woman.
>>60095847
it was tracked and I confirmed it days ago
about half of the items in the order do differ slightly from the pics, though
different buckle and different color, although the color is specified once in the title (rose gold instead of gold). All of the pics show plain gold though
is that enough to get a partial refund on those items?

>>60095887
A partial refund definitely. I got a full refund on sunglasses that the seller wrote the wrong dimensions for. They fit me too but the description on the store was wrong.
The very end of my Rock Zircons are fraying. The plastic is exposed and going to burst out. Wtf do I do REEEEEEE.

$50 is the highest some get if you ask for a bunch of features. Theyre pretty good sunglasses themselvesbut theyre RayBan or Tom Ford replicas and I understand why you might not want to bother with that, but the quality on every other pair of chink glasses doesnt compare.
The seller has recently gone into hiding and closed their DHgate store. Youll have to circlejerk on Reddit or message him on whatsapp: 86 186 7982 5681
Found a Thinkpad T420 on Aliexpress for 500 $, is it good?
>>60095937
/hpg/ told me multi driver headphones were a meme, surely this is the same for IEMs?
>>60095942
You won't get any shipping updates beyond customs, which pretty much means it's in the country. I assume you'd be getting it within the next week, but packages can end up sitting for a fair while in Sydney once they arrive. Usually takes about a few weeks all up for me.

1st link is shit.
The Tennmak link is correct.
>>60096093
So do multi driver headphones
>>60096126
I use a really cheap one, so I can't really recommend one. I can tell you that a cheap one will probably work, but it won't do for much more than patch jobs and repairing stuff.
>>60096148
Nah it's the meme gayming headphones that squeeze 3 cheap drivers on each side to create a """""surround""""" effect.
Hint: It doesn't work.
>>60096150
thats really all I need it for, small electronics patch ups and repairs, do you have a link?
>>60096165
There are multi drive headphones besides surround gaming headphones
Where can I get a PSP-1000 battery that won't shit the bed after a month?
>>60096174
Maybe but the meme ones are the gayming one.
Probably next to nobody even know the other type exists.
>>60096170
I got mine like a decade ago because I'm not a dweeb without a soldering iron.
>>60096064
A t420 should be well under $200 at this point.
>>60096176

I always lurk but never really post and contribute, I really should.. Anyways I have a lot of shit back at my parents house but I've only got this chink shit in my new place and here it is
I also have a bunch of Jinhao/Baoer/Hero pens.
Sea-gull Watch, Takstar & Somic Headphones, Lepai Amp, HLLY-T90 AMP, Coffee grinder ceramic, Jiayu s3 (random chink phone), Ajazz keyboard, alot of other random stuff..

>>60096364
Nice, surprised chinks don't just sell those.
Thanks, I'll probably make one of those.
>>60096265
How is the keyboard? Would you recommend it?
>>60096366
I forgot that they werent takstars but these:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/electronic-2015-brand-3-5mm-Original-Genuine-TAKSTAR-HI2050-Hi-Fi-Stereo-Headphones-Music-Headset-studio/32279127183.html
I cant remember what it was but someone said these are kinda the same thing as takstars...
Anyway those against Somic V2s, well both are definitely good purchasing.
Put it this way, if you can only have 1 headphone to use then youd probably choose the Takstar, Somics are too bassless and mid heavy and brightish in comparison to the more Takstars which are similarish to the Philips SHP9500 which is another good buy.
Still, the somics are def a good addition and sound great. Still, none are bass heavy

I've lurked csg for months and I still don't know what you guys are talking about with regard to these meme IEMs. They look like hearing aids to me... Are they actually good? In terms of quality, how much would a $15-20 chink pair cost me in the USA or on Amazon?
anyone here that has used the ajazz ak33? looking for a cheap 60% like keyboard...
>>60096446
Pretty good, however they are blue switches and they are loud.. so I would get brown which I did. I bought a Rapoo pic related.
As far as the quality goes compared to my cherry brown, well for me personally I would never buy another cherry keyboard ever again, I am perfectly happy with these 30 dollar cherry copy keyboards. The ajazz is nice as well. I have yet to receive the rapoo so I will see how it goes, I dont use the old cherry as I like the small form of these ones over the traditional numpad bullshit.
>>60096489
>>60096507
I mentioned the ajazz, I really like the Ajazz but gave it to my sister. The lights are pretty and love the small size. It also costed me 35 AUD on ebay. Check ebay as ali is not always the cheapest for osme reason.
>>60096480
IDK bout rock zircons n shit but I've used my xiaomi piston 2s n 3s for over 2 years now and they destroy all my past IEMS bought from local store. I mean DESTROY, no comparison. Even against much more expensive ones. Well 100 bux vs 30 bux. No reason to buy anything but these xiaomems man. Here is my chink bike as well if anyones from /n/
>>60094994
I got the red one from the seller that has blank keycaps in like 7 colors, when you sort in highest orders.
They're ok, I switched back to stock abs, because I don't like the feeling of pbt, but they were pretty thick. Check combatibility with spacebar, for some keyboards it's off.
>>60096265
Here is my sea-gull watch. One of my favourite watches and yet it only cost me 100 AUD. It is definitely a Seiko competitor in the budget range, every bit as good, I'd say the finish is better than a lot of Seiko 5s. I won't say QC is better as Seiko has that down pat esp with their awesome workhorse movement. Not to show off but this is the only pic I have of my sea-gull watch in my chink watch box. Also a great product.
>>60096542
ok thanks for the info senpai
>>60096542
not from /n/ but looks really good anon,how much did it cost and how sturdy is it?
>>60096568
how much did you pay for this 5-watch box? I see 6-watch boxes on amazon for $13 but 12-watch boxes are only $16 so it's hard to pull the trigger
is there a decent chink box for like $5 with only 5 slots?
>>60096542
I guess they didn't have any frames your size
>>60096417

>>60096579
Some driver crashed into me and I got insurance money to buy a new bike. So I just got all the old bits and put it onto the new chink frame (Hongfu FM069SL) Got left over money to buy new wheelset and other little upgrades.
Frame itself is def an upgrade over my old bike, light frame and stiff. Is now 2 years old and holding up great. I wouldn't buy any random chink carbon frame though. The hongfus were used by a few people from teh community so I trusted it enough.
>>60096580
Probably paid 22USD or 30 AUD for it. There were def cheaper ones but I wanted the buffed glossy wood veneer. Still smells like chemicals inside, havent been bothered leaving it open to air it out. Otherwise a great product once again.
I've got a steam link set up, but don't have mouse/keyboard

No idea how good they actually are or how old those recommandations are, mind. But someone recommended that at some point.
>>60096587
na man thats actually perfect for me, I dunno if you ride bikes.. but a lot of roadies like to ride on the smaller size if they're between sizes. I dont find the next size up comfy at all. I've short torso n long legs.
>>60096686
right, thankyou for taking the time to find that for me
>>60096690
I do ride, and I'm aware of people who ride smaller frames (weight weenies and tryhards)
There's no excuse for such a spacer stack... although I suppose chink frames just come in S-M-L-XL sizes rather than by centimeters, so if you're between sizes, too small is better than too big.
On a related note, how come you can't find generic, no-brand alu road frames anywhere?
>>60096621
No idea, their older rapoo keyboards use kailh switches but for this model they may very possibly use something else, coudlnt find the info unfortunately.
>>60096489

ah that pics old, I have since cut off a lot of the steerer tube off and use 1/3 of the spacers in that photo. Not slammed but almost..... I just wanted to muck around with the aggressiveness.
As far as alu goes, I reckon they'd have some on aliexpress. But you could always get local alu frames for pretty cheap. Lots of people have unfinished projects or scrapped their old bikes etc

Is the DAC-X6 both an amp and a dac?
>>60096818
yes sir it is, so is the stereo amp next to it.
I also in the past used my DAC-X6 as a dac for my Headphones + Stereo, a perfect combination.
I have a schiit modi to compare to DAC wise and both do a fine job. They are good enough in my books but the DAC X6 is cheaper and includes a Headphone amp so..

i don't doubt this is something that rarely happens, Its just worrying being that I wasn't home and found it laying ejected from the socket with scorch marks all over it.
I got my 2x 5 meter RGB led strips from xanthoom. One wasn't working right so I mailed them and they refunded the price of one cable. Turns out it was cut and soldered together about 10cm from the connector plugs for some reason. (Yeah that is some hotglue as well).
My 5 meter white is not waterproof and I don't like it. Going to encase it in transparent tape just to be sure (it won't be placed anywhere visible). Thing is with these led strips you can cut them at set intervals to make shorter cables. This has it every 3cm (!!) So I got bare 12v tips everywhere if I don't cover it
Always get waterproof.
>>60097298
Oh definitely.
Impressive it blew straight through the fuse too.. I wonder how hard it got hit to do that..

Only the sea-gull watch is my chink watch. The others are genuine Swiss/Japanese watches.

I would much rather have a cheap genuine Seiko or anything budgetey than a knock off watch.. I started with the skx007 5 years ago, no idea why anyone would buy a knock off, please dont if you're considering it.
>>60096489
Magicforce 68 is made by the same company and is better built with more switch choices. Look on Amazon. Plus the Ajazz has non-standard key shapes so you can't replace the keycaps easily.
>>60097233
Yea, that is why we have to be careful buying chink shit.
>>60097298
Could have started a fire.
Why there're no AC/DC adapters with female jack? I can't find any 6V adapter to plug a 3.5x1.5 jack into it, all I see are universal adapters with male jacks, or audio jack adapters.

There is an 8W USB-powered one which costs about £5 and is surprisingly good for fiddly little jobs. Attempting to solder anything more than 18AWG wire with it is a recipe for extreme frustration though.

Second package was the second stage Buu figma, without box, for 8 or 9 bucks or so. It's decent-looking with a surprisingly ok paint job but it's ill-fitting, and one pin on the foot broke off immediately. Still, as soon as I get it to sit right it's really decent, all-in.

>>60098106
Measure yourself up, find some size charts and send the info to the seller. This guy actually asked me about my measurements. Get to the standard size most similar to the EU/US equivalent. For instance, this pair of trousers is size 35, and most of the shirts I ordered are XXL.

SD650 is only slightly more powerful but nowhere near as power efficient. I'd rather take 25% more battery life and 10% less performance with the SD625.
The Note 4 also has a better display and camera than the Note 3.
>>60099901
In actual usage, the note 3 is the same performance with worse battery life

>>60100804
Yeah but I'm not buying that one either
Why the Z2 has no ROM support though? the Z1 has lineage
>>60101336
I'd guess it's simply because it didn't sell as much as your typical Redmi or Moto phone. I wouldn't say it has no ROM support, there's quite a few available for it:
https://zukfans.eu/community/forums/custom-z2plus-rom-releases.16/
>>60101336
It has quite a good amount of roms. It's not a nexus community, but it's not a shitty chink nor shitty samsung community. I've seen a lot of communities over the years (a lot of different devices) and I can say that the Z2 had a great start. It's a shame that the death notice was emitted, but it doesn't mean much for the phone - we all know that the official updates would suck either way. A lot of phones have been sold, at least 8k units on aliexpress alone. It's not a Redmi, but still.
